We hear a lot today about “value added” and sometimes the value added programs that are brought to us are certainly not that. Little Scholars is truly value added. Their programs not only improved the lives of the children they come into contact with, they also improve and increase the confidence of the parents. The best part, having them as part of our practice “portfolio,” makes our practice look like we are geniuses. - Ted Abernathy, M.D., FAAP, Pediatric and Adolescent Health Partners, Richmond, Va
